The BD team trial the NEW Australis Rapid Tan Chocolate Mousse with varying results.
Lately, I’ve been catching myself daydreaming about having glowing bronze skin, but like most, I don’t have the patience to lie out in the sun for hours on end. I was excited to give the Australis a go as it promised a lovely faux glow with minimal wait time. The mousse was straightforward to apply with a tanning mitt and the chocolate brown stain made it easy to eliminate any areas that could result in streaks or patches. The best part about this product is that you can rinse it off after one, two or three hours depending on how dark you like it. My sheets are sighing with relief knowing I will never again dive into them without rinsing my tan off first. And the results? After it developed overnight, I emerged the next day a bronzed beauty and I’m not afraid to say that a few compliments were tossed my way in the office about how natural my tan looked. - Laura
I’m a self-confessed fake tan-a-holic. Every Thursday night I cover myself in the stuff in the hopes I wake up looking like I’ve just stepped off the plane from a tropical holiday. I’ve tried my fair share of fake tans – and had my fair share of fails – but Australis’ new certainly did not disappoint. With the help of my beloved mitt, the mousse spread very easily over my skin. It offered a chocolate brown colour straight away - which not only gets you excited about the colour to come, but also ensures you don’t miss any areas for an even application. But what I loved most about this product was how fast it worked. I’ve often ruined many sheets from sleeping in fake tan – but not this week! I applied the tan after dinner, and right before bed (about three hours later) I washed it off. I was left with a deep, chocolate brown. The colour worked really well with my olive skin, and was not at all orange. No sleeping in the stuff, no orange and not a single streak in sight. Ticks all round. - Caitlin
I've never been a huge fake tan girl, but all the new developments in the market means I've been stepping it up when it comes to fake tan application. Australis' new is the perfect example of why I've been coming around to the party. There are five things that make this tan a gold (en) winner in my books - 1. It has a delicious chocolate scent - no fake tan wafts here, 2. It leaves an instant golden stain on application - meaning you know where you’ve applied the product, 3. It can be washed off after one hour - obvious wins all round there, 4. It’s not sticky on your skin after application, and 5. It delivers a beautiful natural-looking bronzed colour. What more could a girl want from a tan? - Yelena
Yes, I may have been born with the pale eyes and pale skin of an English rose, but I have always longed for the golden glow of a beach babe. And while I don’t hate my natural freckle collection, bikini season is approaching and I don’t want anybody confusing my winter beach body on the shore with a beached Migaloo. This is where a quick (and natural) fake bake like Australis steps in. As a lady of the paler variety, a quick hour or two does the trick - transforming my moon tan into a healthy hue that Gigi Hadid would be proud of. - Sarah
